How can I make icons smaller on Iphone 5s ?

I recently erased my iPhone 5s and I noticed that the size of all the icons and text throughout the OS got larger. It doesn't look as good as before I erased my phone. How can I get the smaller icon sizes back ?
Moreover, the "Display Zoom" part doesn't appear in "Display and brightness", can anyone know how to fix it?

Help pleaseeee !

iPhone 5s, iOS 11.4

As I can see from your info you should have installed iOS 11.4 on your 5s, right?

Settings>Display&Brightness>... the last option should be ZOOM, tap on it and set to standard.

Also in Settings>Display&Brightness>FONT SIZE.... tap on it and set the cursor at the bottom (in center).


Restart the iPhone then Test your screen.


If the icons are still big, or you have a bigger text, check also:

Settings>General>Accessibility>ZOOM (2nd option) and disable it.

Also in Settings>General>Accessibility>BIGGER FONT (6th option) and disable it.


Restart the iPhone then Test your screen again
